2 Old 4 TikTok 2gether 4eva: Song Trends, Clueless TikTok, Food Trends, and more!

Dena and Melissa are finally reunited after over a year of the pandemic kept them apart. This episode was recorded together in Dena’s apartment. They talk about their weekend upstate, fear of ticks, and Tick Tok. 

TikTok Song Trends: The Backyardigans

We begin with song trends from The Backyardigans. “Into the Thick of It!” has a dance trend, singalong trend, musical parody (by @rachel.ann.thomas), and lyrical parody (we feature a video from @rich_alfonso). Mark Mallman (@markmallman) explains why the song is so good. We also discuss other songs trending from  The Backyardigans on TikTok like Castaways and International Super Spy.

Clueless TikTok

Next, we talk about Clueless TikTok. Alicia Silverstone (@aliciasilverstone) recently joined TikTok and already has millions of views. We feature a video from David Busch (@david_b_Busch) where he explains he was the guy Alicia shoved in the famous scene. 

Food Trends: Watermelon Mustard, Lettuce Water

This week’s food trends include watermelon with mustard and lettuce water. We learned about watermelon mustard from @lizzo who stitched @yayayayummy’s videos. We try it live on the pod. We mention a video from @thatnickguy_ trying lettuce water.
